Trinkets/Rita Knight Art

Many new projects are happening now & just around the corner for the fall. Take a look...

The Art Cellar in downtown Greenville, SC is moving to a new larger location this month.
Rita Knight Art has angel paintings in all sizes and note cards suitable for framing at this
location. To learn more about this gallery which won The Best Gallery in Greenville, SC,
go to www.greenvilleartcellar.com

I just delivered angels to the Threads of Love organization on Lake Oconee.
The 5 x 7 paintings will be included in packets delivered to select hospitals throughout
Georgia. A percentage of angel note card sales will be donated to this organization~many
hearts comforted & healed by their wonderful work! To volunteer or for more information,

I'm looking forward to an Artist Residency at Oglethorpe Elementary in Athens, GA
starting this fall. In addition to the Trinkets' 21st Century Entrepreneurship classes
at Cedar Shoals and Clarke Central High Schools in Athens, GA, I will be conducting
jewelry design and art classes at Oglethorpe on Fridays.

I will have some of the paintings in the "Angels" series as well as the "Bloom where you
are Planted" series on display at The Surgery Center at Athens Regional on the Atlanta
Highway in Athens, GA in 2017. Stay tuned for details.
